In this book on higher education the contributors make The Black Lives Matter (#BLM) their focus and engage in contemporary theorizing around the issues central to the Movement: Black Deprivation, Black Resistance, and Black Liberation.The #BLM movement has brought national attention to the deadly oppression shaping the everyday lives of Black people. With the recent murders of Breonna Taylor and George Floyd from state-sanctioned violence by police, the public outrage and racial unrest catapulted #BLM further into the mainstream. Institutional leaders (e.g., provosts, department heads, faculty, campus administrators), particularly among white people, soon began realizing that anti-Blackness could no longer be ignored, making #BLM the most significant social movement of our time. The chapters included in this volume cover topics such as white institutional space and the experiences of Black administrators; a Black transnational ethic of Black Lives Matter; depictions of #BLM in the media; racially liberatory pedagogy; campus rebellions and classrooms as sites for Black liberation; Black women’s labor and intersectional interventions; and Black liberation research. The considerations for research and practice presented are intended to assist institutional leaders, policy-makers, transdisciplinary researchers, and others outside higher education, to dismantle anti-Blackness and create supportive mechanisms that benefit Black people, especially those working, learning and serving in higher education. The chapters in this book were originally published in a special issue of International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education.

"Este libro es una recopilación de relatos de enfermeras y enfermeros vinculados a los diez procesos de Caritas® de la Teoría del Ciencia del Cuidado de la Dra. Jean Watson . Los diez procesos de Caritas (que transmiten amor, compasión, sabiduría y cuidado) describen los elementos universales esenciales del cuidado humano que son el día a día de las enfermeras y los enfermeros. A menudo estos procesos no se reconocen y pueden permanecer ocultos y sin compartirse, debido a la cultura profesional científica y objetiva de los hospitales institucionales y a la medicina empírica orientada hacia la técnica." Jean Watson, PhD, RN, AHN-BC, FAAN, LL (AAN) Profesora distinguida/Decana emérita CU Denver CON Fundadora/Directora: Watson Caring Science Institute "...milagros suceden continuamente, el problema es que estamos demasiado ocupados para verlos realmente.... Lo que hacemos, dando lo mejor en cada momento, incluso en los momentos más duros... es realmente un milagro."Mónica García, Enfermera titulada, especialista en UCI, MSN Instituto Nacional de Cancerología Bogotá, Colombia

What happens when persons of several Latin American national groups reside in the same neighborhood— Milagros Ricourt and Ruby Danta consider the stories of women of different nationalities—Colombian, Cuban, Dominican, Ecuadorian, Peruvian, Puerto Rican, Uruguayan, and others—who live together in Corona, a working-class neighborhood in Queens. Corona has long been an arrival point for immigrants and is now made up predominantly of Spanish-speaking immigrants from the Caribbean and South and Central America, with smaller numbers from Asia, Africa, and Europe. There are also long-established populations of white Americans, mainly of Italian origin, and African Americans.The authors find that the new pan-Latin American community in Corona has emerged from the interactions of everyday living. Hispanas de Queens focuses on the places where women gather in Corona—bodegas, hospitals, schoolyards, and Roman Catholic and Protestant churches—to show how informal alliances arise from proximity.Ricourt and Danta document how a group of leaders, mainly women, consciously promoted this strong sense of community to build panethnic organizations and a Latino political voice. Hispanas de Queens shows how a new group identity—Hispanic or Latino—is formed without replacing an individual's identification as an immigrant from a particular country. Instead, an additional identity is created and can be mobilized by pan-Latino leaders and organizations.
